npc || amun [ @ hierarchy ]

[nightnpcs]

( ping ping ping. or, y'know, whatever your phone chime is. the face of a man who looks like he's never smiled once in his entire life appears on your screen. you may have seen him before, while you were busy surviving a storm or battling reapers. no matter. you might as well bask in his impromptu company now, because his appearances are few, and his indulgences even fewer. )

Allow me to make this clear. For those of you who wonder still: I am the Hierarchy. You do not come to us; we summon, invite, and hire. Order is of the utmost importance if you wish to survive, and time is of the essence. Do not waste mine.

( behind him, movement. if you squint, you may notice strands of greying hair near the door, though the person it belongs to remains off-screen. )

Your personal troubles are your own. If you expected us to hold your hand, do think again; there are far greater affairs to attend to, so do yourselves a favor, and look for soulmates. We've prepared an application for you, easily accessible from your device's home page. Should you need additional information, perhaps it's time for you to practice self-reliance.

I will not be answering questions.

( and the feed cuts, abruptly, without greetings or a name. )

ooc note

► Amun will not be responding, though you're absolutely welcome to react, comment and discuss amongst yourselves on this post! Other NPCs might show up!
► This is, more or less, Tinder for Soulmates o/ You'll find the permanent post (aka phone application) right HERE! If you're interested, simply fill out the form and comment on the post, and bam. Browse, swipe left or swipe right, and have fun! This is not mandatory.
► Forms and replies should be posted ICly (yes, even if it's located in the OOC comm -- you may choose one (1) thread for october's AC) .
► Another character may post in your character's stead. Additionally, feel free to have their Shadow influence their blurb!
► The application offers all the information your character needs to know! To recap: All that's required for another Restless to become your Soulmate is for them to enter your home, touch your Tethers upon invitation, and from then on, a piece of their soul will merge with yours, fortifying your Self. As a literal extension of your being, they'll easily gain access to your thoughts if you let them (or if you're careless), they'll experience your pains, fears, and joys on weaker levels, and their voice, touch and overall vicinity can become great soothing weapons against your Shadow. However. If two characters already share a powerful bond and one incidentally touches the other's Tethers, it's an accidental done deal. You may thank Naruto's player for this.
► You may have multiple Soulmates!
► If you have questions regarding the app, redirect them here!

Handle? [ That other, one, though... ] Oh, stage name. Stage name I can get. It's... still not that great of one?

[ Oh well. ]

[oomfies]

It's all about the branding that makes it good or bad. One word names are iconic! Right now though, it's kinda..

[ He doesn't see it, but Lottie looks around suspiciously, waves her hand a little to emphasize the so-so quality of it. Even lets her words trail off to a noise that sounds especially unsure, before picking back up: ]

I wouldn't follow him or anything, is all I'm saying.

[fallingsand]

Well, yeah, what do we think when we think of hierarchy? It's like a list. He's naming himself after a list. That's boring.

[oomfies]

Or, he's naming himself that to say he is the hierarchy. The top of the top. Like he's above the actual pyramid!

[fallingsand]

But then... who's the rest of them? Is there a pecking order? Do they have different jobs? Is there one of them we can file a complaint to?

[oomfies]

Well.. I mean, maybe?!

[ A pause. ]

Can we really file complaints when we're dead? Are we allowed to do that??

[fallingsand]

Sure? Y-yeah, we're dead, but there's a whole city of the dead, so it's got to have like. An office of Restless... Hierarchy... relations? Or something?

[oomfies]

[ Hmmmm.. This is actually not a bad idea. And it makes sense?! Lottie nods her head in agreement, even if he can't really see it. ]

If you do find that office, let me know! Gimme their number or an address.. Maybe more complaints means we can do something other than play with this app.

[fallingsand]

[ In before he finds such an office and is immediately kicked out. ]

Oh, sure! If I... do, I'll. Um. How do I let you know? I don't even know who you are?

[oomfies]

Look my username up and leave a message? I'll eventually get back to you.

[fallingsand]

[ Username. Username... ]

That's the name that's showing up on the screen, yeah?

[oomfies]

[ There's a smile to her voice. ]

Yup, that's the one. Yours is.. [ A pause, as she wonders if she should say this like it's a name or just a whole ass username. ] Bee-madrigal?

[fallingsand]

Yeah, that's me. Bruno Madrigal. I just, uh. I put my actual name in there for it, kinda.

[oomfies]

Oh, cool, cool. Mine is my name, too! Just type in 'Lottie' and I'll come up.. You can text me or whatever.

[ and before she forgets -- ]

..It's nice to meet you, by the way.

[fallingsand]

Lottie. Got it. Ah, yeah, it's been nice talking to you, too, Lottie.
